I wanted to get an external to store everything, and was wondering if linux could safely write to say a fat32 drive? If I could have a drive able to be edited by both linux and windows, my problems would be over and I could, say, synch my ipod through Amarok instead of stupid iTunes. I mean, I may be able to now, since amarok sees all my music files, but I am guessing the path name would have changed and so I would probably end up accidentally wiping the ipod. Not something I am willing to do yet ;) </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> I use an external hard drive (Maxtor) 80GB for exactly that. It holds 3 FAT32 partitions and works flawlessly. I don't know if the 32GB limit still is necessary, but some sources claim that Winders can't allocate more than that. So, just in case...
